Laravel UUID
============

[](#laravel-uuid)

A package for working with UUID values in Laravel.

You can use the package to generate and validate version 1, 3, 4 and 5 UUID identifiers.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To install, simply type the following at your bash prompt:

```
composer require takeawaytown/laravel-uuid

```

The package automatically registers the Service Provider and Alias in Laravel 5.5 and above. If using Laravel <= 5.4, then you must manually add them.

For the Service Provider, add the following to your app config file:

```
TakeawayTown\LaravelUuid\Providers\UuidServiceProvider::class,

```

For the Alias, add the following to your app config:

```
'UUID' => TakeawayTown\LaravelUuid\Classes\Uuid::class,

```

Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

The most basic generator usage is:

```
Uuid::generate();

```

This will generate a UUID object, which will be 'Version 1' and will use a random MAC address.

You can also generate a UUID string using type-hinting or using a method. Either of the following is exactly the same:

```
(string) Uuid::generate();
Uuid::generate()->string;

```
